The use of supplementary materials in EFL classes: A comparative analysis of public and private high schools

The use of supplementary materials is of particular importance for Second and Foreign Language learners who frequently are not sufficiently motivated to learn English despite years of formal study. Consequently, this study “The use of supplementary material in EFL classes: A comparative Analysis of a Public and a Private High School in the city of Quito-Ecuador” is focused on the extra material used in the classroom that is different from that which is part of the course book and workbook. The sample chosen for this research was the selection of 1st, 2nd, and 3rd years which consisted of male gender class whose students were around 14 and 17 years old. It was also necessary to develop a survey which was conducted to collect data that was analyzed in order to evaluate the students’ and teachers’ opinions on using supplementary materials. Teachers are not willing to use them every day, because they consider the student book is enough and the teachers must been encouraged to use the supplementary material so that and they use them in their class appropriately and pertinently.
